In Our Own Voices provides insight

 

The Office of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (ODEI) recently completed its third podcast. Our guest was Tandra LaGrone, the executive director of In Our Own Voices (IOOV).

The interview was rich with information, engaging, and inspiring. LaGrone is a phenomenal leader who has helped many people of color in the LGBTQ community. At the conclusion of the interview, we were inspired and appreciative of the time and commitment she has dedicated to support people of color in the LGBTQ community.

Below are some of the topics we discussed during our session.

  • Being a person of color in the LGBTQ community
  • Title VII and the recent Supreme Court protection afforded to the LGBTQ community
  • BLM and the LGBTQ community
  • Black Lives Matter mural on Lark Street
  • Law enforcement and the LGBTQ community
  • Having a seat at the decision table
  • Comprehensive training for administrators and educators regarding LGBTQ issues

Please take some time and listen to the podcast below.
